About product

What it is

A cutting blade from the Etch Slide tool line. It is a modeling item for building, a tool for cutting. This is a consumable part, that is, a bare blade without a handle, not a finished tool. Which holder the blade belongs in, what size it is and which operation the manufacturer intends it for can be found in the manufacturer's instructions. Further blades of the same line carry the same name, so the item code, not the name, is what tells them apart.

Why it pays to change the blade in time

A blunted edge does not cut the material, it pushes and tears it. The edge of the cut lifts, the plastic whitens where it is cut and the mark then has to be laboriously sanded away. A sharp blade goes through the same place under less pressure, so it does not slip and the cut stays clean. It is therefore worth keeping consumable blades in reserve and discarding a blunt one rather than trying to resharpen it.

How to work with the blade

  • Cut on a hard surface; a soft base pulls the blade off its path.
  • Make several shallow passes instead of one deep one.
  • Hold the blade square to the surface, otherwise the cut wanders and the edge bends.
  • After work, wipe the edge dry and store the blade so that the cutting edge does not rest against anything.
  • Check the fit with your holder in the manufacturer's instructions before you buy.

Who it is for

It suits anyone who already uses the tools of the Etch Slide line and is replenishing consumables for them. The edges are sharp, so bear that in mind when handling it and keep the blade out of the reach of children. The holder, a handle and other tools are not included, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. A bare blade is supplied as a consumable part for a tool you already own.

It is a tool for cutting. The particular use and the suitable holder are given by the manufacturer's instructions, so check them before you buy.

As soon as the material starts to tear instead of being cut, that is, when the edge of the cut lifts and the plastic whitens where it is cut.

By the item code. Several blades of the same line carry an identical name, so the code is the only reliable way to tell them apart.
